2.4 Expansion Slots (PCI, AMR, and AGI 8X Slots)
There are 3 PCI slots, 1 AMR slot, and 1 AGI 8X slot on this motherboard.
PCI slots:
PCI slots are used to install expansion cards that have the 32-bit PCI
interface.
Because the installed AMR card will occupy the same external
connecting position with the PCI card installed in “PCI3” slot, you will
not be able to install any PCI card in “PCI3” slot if an AMR card has
already been installed in the AMR slot.
AMR slot:
AMR slot is used to insert a MR card (optional) with v.92 Modem
functionality.
AGI slot:
The AGI 8X slot is a special design that only supports compatible AGP
VGA cards. For the information of the compatible AGP VGA cards, please
refer to the “Supported AGP VGA Cards List” on page 7/8.
To install the system with an add-on AGP VGA card, you must make
sure to install the driver of add-on AGP VGA card before you install
the onboard VGA driver. If the onboard VGA driver has already been
installed before you install the add-on AGP VGA card, the system will
automatically set the onboard VGA as the primary graphics adapter. In
that case, if you want to install the add-on AGP VGA card, you need
to remove the onboard VGA driver first, and then install the add-on
AGP VGA card and its driver. For the detailed instruction, please refer
to the documents in the Support CD, “AGI Slot Installation Guide (for
Windows 2000)” and “AGI Slot Installation Guide (for Windows XP)”,
which are located in the folder at the following path:

Before installing the expansion card, please make sure that the power
supply is switched off or the power cord is unplugged. Please read the
documentation of the expansion card and make necessary hardware
settings for the card before you start the installation.
Step 2.
Remove the system unit cover (if your motherboard is already installed in a
chassis).
Step 3.
Remove the bracket facing the slot that you intend to use. Keep the screws
for later use.
Step 4.
Align the card connector with the slot and press firmly until the card is
completely seated on the slot.

Fasten the card to the chassis with screws.
Step 6.
